NOW i know why no one else was keen on this car

[zhie]

because the only service center for it is a good twenty miles from here

i am thinking i need to get that premium AAA membership so i can get it over there if ever such a thing happens

nothing so bad right now that it's not drivable over there (check engine light), but gosh, good to know before a big problem occurs

interesting enough, the bright side is that there is a restaurant Mark loves over on that end of town, so I think we'll be going there afterward
